Session 502 - The Benefits of Building Small - Jim Bahoosh

IAQ & Energy 2019 Conference, Session 502: Well designed small houses have got it going on. They’re the “Fun Size” super heroes of housing: resource-efficient and easy to live in. During this talk you’ll learn design techniques to fully utilize interior space. I’ll also explain how to build a home from readily available materials, which materials to use for a healthy indoor environment and which to both use and avoid for a healthy global environment, and how to balance initial building cost with long term energy cost. If you’re interested in smaller spaces and efficient design, this talk will serve you well.
